Featured Reviews

Cristina Neri - PeerSpot reviewer
Cheaply-priced and does not require much customizations
It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten. At the moment, the tool functions quite well for our needs. Around five people use the tool. In the future, my company might plan to increase the use of the solution. Currently, all the sales people in our company use the product.
Omair Bokhari - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps business track their customers, sales leads, and opportunities
An area for improvement is the vendors' inability to understand the customers' requirements and communicate them to Oracle. When we started to implement the tool, and during the very initial phases of the product, when Oracle launched it, our company opted for it. We faced a few challenges related to the product speed associated with some functionalities that were not available when the tool was just launched, but later on, it became available, and right now, we are actually using it. The tool is fulfilling our requirements. There were no major hiccups or challenges due to the tool. The solution's mobile app needs to be enriched with more functionalities in the future.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Freshsales is very simple to use, but it's fairly limited in its functionalities, and it's very cheap."
"The solution is a low-cost CRM product compared to other CRM alternatives."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to divert deals based on the potential revenue or specific market to certain sales teams."
"Freshsales is user-friendly, scalable and stable."
"I like Freshsales because it's integrated with Shopify which we use to host our website."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its well-organized sales cycle, which is important to us."
"Email integration is easy."
"It is one of the most proficient CRM tools out there. It is comprehensive and scalable. It covers most of the CRM activities, business lines, and business requirements."
"Oracle CRM's best feature is its ability to customize as per specific organization's requirements."
"It has a wide variety of use cases."
"It helps our company interact with our customers, track leads and opportunities, determine how many opportunities are transferred into actual sales, and other such areas."
"During the demos, Oracle CRM's natural language search feature stood out to me. It departs from the traditional menu-based options, making searches more intuitive. Another significant feature is their Common Data Platform. Including an accounting package as part of the full platform was also appealing."
"The product is straightforward to set up. There's no difficulty."
"Everything related to insights and dashboards is valuable. It is great for tracking all the effort and generating reports."
"I find the reporting features impactful."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture."
"We can use only one domain in the basic package."
"It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases."
"The licensing costs should be based on the amount of data and number of clients that one can insert into the application."
"The price of this solution could be improved as well as the reporting functionality."
"We have a problem with the time to delivery for our customers, although this is not specific to this solution. Time to delivery can be 90 days."
"The reporting for this solution across all their products could be improved. Currently, we have clients who export their data from Freshservices to third party solutions such Power BI to create more comprehensive reports."
"In the planning area in order to calculate commissions the function could be improved. Currently, we are not using that functionality because it is very basic."
"I would like to see the UI improved ."
"I'd like to see more feature enhancements."
"It’s complex to customize the tool."
"The configuration requires a lot of technical intervention."
"The user interface could be better. It's currently running on an older Java UI format, which could be upgraded to Fiori."
"We noticed that sometimes it can be slow, and then we have to refresh the whole system."
"The performance could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The basic price is affordable. The add ons are expensive."
"The price for this solution is good in general, but in Brazil we do pay additional taxes."
"Freshsales is an economical product."
"If one is a very low price and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as a three."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a twelve. Oracle CRM is on the expensive side."
"There is a license required to use this solution. The price is reasonable for a CRM."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis."
"It is not cheap. It is more suitable for big companies."
"The pricing for licensing is pretty expensive. If you need one particular feature it becomes expensive to have to continue paying for it."
"The product’s pricing is very high."
"We have annual licenses to use this solution that are quite expensive. For example, we have approximately four types of licenses and we have one annual contract for the number of licenses we use for Oracle CRM and the loyalty system."
"In my region, the tool is expensive. There are no additional costs in addition to the standard licensing fees of the tool."
